Pdf Summary
The document discusses congenital cardiac malformations and post-operative care following cardiac surgery, presented by Ravi R Thiagarajan. It includes information about congenital heart disease, prevalence, associated anomalies, genetic syndromes, and diagnostic methods. It also covers topics such as cardiac catheterization, intra-cardiac shunts, Tetralogy of Fallot, single ventricle CHD, and hypoplastic left heart syndrome. Management strategies for different conditions are outlined, including stage 1 palliation, Fontan physiology, and post-operative Fontan management. Details about tetmporary cardiac pacing, cardiac pressure-volume loops, and key considerations in understanding circulation and physiology in congenital heart disease are also provided. Additionally, the document emphasizes the importance of calculating cardiac output, Qp/Qs ratios, and resistances, as well as addressing low cardiac output and identifying reasons for its occurrence, such as residual lesions.
